I would doubt it but maybe he did. There was plenty of info about Holocaust in the late 1930's in the New York Times |

AP govt. essay..Walter "it is perfectly true that the
govt is best which governs
least. It is also equally true
that the govt is best which
provides most"
To what extent do you agree or
disagree with this statement?
Give examples of current govt
programs to support your
position.
I don't understand because the
statement is contradicting
itself. When I read I first
think conservative view and
then by the end of the quote
you're thinking more liberal?
Help please?

Perhaps governing the least IS providing the most freedom of action (ie the whole life, liberty, pursuit of happiness bit). Just a thought |

JFK/ Walter Lippmann quote?I could not find the quote .My opinion is that Kennedy as president was a man of the centre like is actually Obama.Kennedy might have a liberal image in the mind of many that voted for him but when he was elected he realized that an American president had to face the reality and he had to move to the center.The same thought can be applied to Obama.He will change things not as much as he would want .If Kennedy,Obama were Premier of Canada it would have been easier for them to implement policies more liberal,more social democratic. ------------------------ Walter Lippmann quotes http://www.quoteland.com/autho r.asp?AUTHOR_ID=200 -------------Lippmann had wide access to the nation's decision makers and had no sympathy for communism. It was Lippmann who first identified the tendency of journalists to generalize about other people based on fixed ideas. He argued that people—including journalists—are more apt to believe "the pictures in their heads" than come to judgment by critical thinking. Humans condense ideas into symbols, he wrote, and journalism, a force quickly becoming the mass media, is an ineffective method of educating the public. Even if journalists did better jobs of informing the public about important issues, Lippmann believed "the mass of the reading public is not interested in learning and assimilating the results of accurate investigation." Citizens, he wrote, were too self-centered to care about public policy except as pertaining to pressing local issues.Following the removal from office of Henry A. Wallace in September 1946, Lippmann became the leading public advocate of the need to respect a Soviet sphere of influence in Europe, as opposed to the containment strategy being advocated at the time by people like George F. Kennan. Lippmann was an informal adviser to several presidents He had a rather famous feud with Lyndon Johnson over his handling of the Vietnam War, of which Lippman had become highly critical http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W alter_Lippmann If John Kennedy survived the attack at Dealey Plaza unharmed, http://bztv.typepad.com/altjfk / http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W alter_Lippmann |
